Music

Lainey Wilson has always had a passion for music from a young age. Going after her dreams, she made her music debut in 2014, which was after she moved from Baskin, Louisiana, to Nashville, Tennessee, following her graduation from high school.

Still on her career pursuit, she went further to release her second album titled Tougher in 2016 on the Lone Chief Label, and the album was a success. As a result, she secured a publishing deal and then went ahead in 2019 to release an EP which featured her hit song titled “Things a Man Oughta Know”. The BBR Music Group published the song as a single in 2020, and it peaked at number one on the American country songs list, propelling the group to fame. 

In 2021, Lainey Wilson joined Jason Aldean’s “Back in the Saddle Tour” as a supporting act. She later worked with Cole Swindell on the song “Never Say Never,” which became her second single to top the Billboard Country chart. 

All things considered, Lainey’s career has been successful, and she has won a number of awards to prove it, including the New Female Artist of the Year and Song of the Year at the 2021 Academy of Country Music Awards. She also won the Country Music Association award in 2022 when she was voted Female Vocalist of the Year and New Artist of the Year. 

The performer earns money by selling her CDs, from which it is estimated that she makes roughly $250,000 annually. She has also entered into agreements with other businesses and record labels, thanks to her success in the music business.

In addition to her album sales, she also receives money from her singing appearances, such as when she is booked for an event or a stage performance in a show. However, the overall money she makes from her music career is not known.

Acting

Lainey Wilson made her acting debut on the popular television series Yellowstone in 2022, where she played the role of Abbey. Her popularity in the entertainment industry paved the way for her to be cast in the role. Before then, fans might have recognized her voice from previous episodes, as she has had more than one original song featured on the Yellowstone soundtrack, including “Smell Like Smoke” and “Small Town, Girl,” which played during the season 3 finale.

The role of Abby was written into the show specifically for Lainey Wilson. Speaking during an interview with the New York Post in November 2022, she shared that she met Yellowstone co-creator Taylor Sheridan after one of her songs was featured on the show. According to her, he invited her out to Vegas to play a horse-riding competition, and they bonded over horses.

In February 2022, Sheridan called and told her that he wanted to create a character specifically for her. Wilson disclosed on The Bobby Bones Show, and today, the rest is history. Meanwhile, Lainey and her character on Yellowstone have a lot in common, and among these is the fact that they’re both country singers.

Social Media Presence

As a social media influencer, Lainey reportedly makes a sizable sum of money via her social media presence on YouTube. She makes an estimated amount of between $700 and $1 million every month, or between $9,000 and $144,200 annually, through her YouTube channel.

Endorsements

Lainey has been able to secure a number of endorsement partnerships with reputable brands. In May 2023, it was reported that she sealed a multi-year collaboration deal with the Kontoor Brands-owned label. The report disclosed that she would be the face of Wrangler’s Fall/Winter 2023 women’s collection, starring in campaign images and social media content. As part of the deal, Lainey will wear denim exclusively on stage and at select meet-and-greet appearances.
